I am a BAYLES(S) descendant. I have the following info regarding a BAYLESS/LEDGERWOOD marriage which is not part of my direct line. I have no info on the LEDGERWOOD family but I do have more info on ancestors in the BAYLES(S) line. There is a BAYLESS GED on my WEB site. I would like to have more information, if possible on any BAYLESS and will gladly share any info that I have. Do you know anything about Luartha LEDGERWOOD? See a descendant list below. Thanks!
